Hey, I’m Toni Rose—a lawyer by profession and an English teacher by passion! With 8+ years of teaching globally (Japan, PH, and beyond), I specialize in helping professionals and students master Business English, public speaking, and real-world communication. My legal background sharpens my eye for precision, while my podcasting/debating experience ensures dynamic, confidence-boosting lessons. When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me swimming, traveling, or geeking out over business-related podcasts. Let’s turn your English goals into victories—one conversation at a time! See you in class!Me as a Teacher
I am a strategic, friendly, and patient educator dedicated to foster a student-centered environment based on mutual respect and collaboration. I am committed to help students identify and develop their own passion while becoming successful critical thinkers, and confident writers, and speakers of the English language.
Students come back and tell me that they are inspired to dream more and be more since I am a dreamer myself. I do not treat my students as merely students but I consider them partners to help them with their goals and needs. This is why it is easier for them to connect with me because I always have an open mind and positive attitude.My lessons & teaching style
I always keep an open mind about how to best engage my students and get them excited about learning—and that means considering trying out different interactive teaching styles. My lessons are informative, engaging, and real-life situational topics that will help them become a global communicator--whether applying for a job abroad, establishing small talk, writing a resume and cover letter, and other important milestones in their lives.
My teaching style is a student-centered environment. There is an 80/20 ratio where students get to perform most of the time and apply what they have learned. I will also adjust based on the student's level, knowledge, goals, and requests.My teaching material
